What's Happening!!: Shirley's Fired

What's Happening!!: Shirley's Fired
ABC
February 23, 1979
Sitcom
DVD
B-

This episode feels a bit de ja vu, but at least everyone is giving it their all.  Rob hires a klutzy waitress, Liz (Judy Pace, who'd previously played Nurse Jennings), and when Shirley tries to quit, Rob fires her.  Then it looks like Liz is stealing from the till, but it's of course a misunderstanding.  Note that if it's embarrassing to watch twelve-year-old-but-passing-for-eleven Susan Olsen sing "On the Good Ship Lollipop," it's really embarrassing to watch thirteen-year-old-but-passing-for-fourteen Danielle Spencer sing it, although at least they didn't make her wear the Shirley Temple costume.

Customer Freeman King was a Police Officer before.
